‘THE LAST ACCEPTABLE PREJUDICE’

Jewish World Review ^ | July 28, 2003 / 28 Tamuz, 5763 | Suzanne Fields

[yonif]

The "new" anti-Semitism is as virulent as ever, but it's often easy for Americans — Christian and Jew alike — not to notice.

Christians and Jews get along here. Evangelical Christians have become some of the best friends Jews have, and, for their part, most Jews are not as suspicious of Evangelical motives as they once were. Since the anti-Semites abroad regard America as the great Satan and Israel the little Satan, we all feel equal-opportunity hate.

Did you read your own link? It says MLK did say that very thing, word-for-word...only not in a letter in the Saturday Review. CAMERA states one can use the sentence as a direct quote from MLK with complete confidence:

This quotation has been confirmed, so you should feel assured that you can use the quotation in letters. Just be sure to mention that it came from Dr. King’s 1968 Harvard University appearance, so that no one will think it is from the debunked “letter.”

I think I put the stylus down in the middle of the record here. I know nothing of what the other guy is asking of me.

[Cyber Liberty]

As much, maybe more, my fault than the others, AM....

[adam_az]

Confused you with "StolarStorm" briefly, sorry.

OTOH your posts are as nonsensical as his.

I am sure that they are. I really did not set out to make a coherent argument, I was just making an observation.

Thanks for the uplifting comment. Out of respect for the AM, I erased the last comment before I hit "post".

I will refrain from making coherent arguments with you in the future. My opinion of you is pretty much unchanged from earlier in the thread.

[StolarStorm]

You really have no class at all. Cyber was holding out an olive branch to you.

I'm beginning to detect a pattern here....

Your observation was that Yonif is wrong to post the messages he does. There is a pattern here - too bad you are incapable of seeing it.

[Straight Vermonter]

The left has nothing to fear from their anti-semitism as the American Jews are content to continue to vote for them. Just as American blacks have whole heartedly allied with the party that has thrown them headlong down the path to destruction so too the Jews support the party that oppose every effort for Israel's self defense.

[Cyber Liberty]

You dope. I was referring to the constant "excerpting".

Fer chrissakes, do you *ever* read the keywords at the top of the thread???

[adam_az]

You have the gall to accuse ME of having no class? Let's review your post #15:

I'm getting concerned about the rapidly increasing amount of racism/religionism present in the Jewish community against non jews. Its a problem that is not being addressed in the media or on this forum.

Still waiting for a few examples of this "rapidly increasing amount of racism/religionism present in the Jewish community against non jews"

[StolarStorm]

No. That was MY viewpoint. Not his. And I don't think it is necessarily wrong to post these sorts of articles, it just that it is done in excess. Don't worry though, I have no power (or right) to limit it. I can just post my opinion, which is my right, as it is yours to disagree with.

[decimon]

I dont know a lot of Jews but the handful that I do know are all Liberal Democrats. What is it that pulls them over to that side? The Christians , like myself, that love and care for them are almost always Conservative Republicans. Am I wrong in this? Maybe I just dont know enough Jewish people to get the whole picture. Our God is One.

During the Twentieth Century it became people on the left who opposed bigotry and supported civil rights. Conservatives in both political parties opposed much of civil rights legislation for reasons good and reasons otherwise. Conservative positions became a place for bigots to hide. Jews and blacks alike came to distrust the motives of people pushing conservative ideas.

That is of course too simple but I think it a good outline. Anticipating some objections, please note that I said, "Conservatives in both parties."

[adam_az]

No, I don't usually read the keywords.

You might have gotten your message across better if you had put it in a post, instead of posting excerpts of your feelings in the keywords. ;)

[American in Israel]

Funny, I do not see much racism in the streets at all. Perhaps you are in a different universe?

[adam_az]

That's how the left would like to rewrite history, but it ain't so.

The Democrats were the party of segregation, witness the rise of the Dixiecrat.

Lincoln was a Republican.

The left gives human rights lipservice, but supports Communist thugs, and has going back to the early 20th century.

[Cyber Liberty]

Hey, gang, I'm gonna beg off this argument. It's really not my fight.

I was just making a flip comment about 1) the excerpting of the article. If we're not under an injunction from that wource, then let's have it. The pop-ups from the sources are driving some of us crazy. 2) I was making another flip comment about someone seeming to be a bit too touchy. It was just a quick comment, not an invitation to a flamefest. I get plenty of that on topics I know more about.

[Cyber Liberty]

Most of the keywords were not mine.

Clutching pieces
one by one
surprising how they knit
bound as soon as put in place
the regeneration
brought about
only by the God of Abraham
of Moses
of Israel

It has taken the collector
the collective conscience
of the gathered souls
a long time to find them
some parts smashed
some nearly pulverized
as happened in the Shoah

slowly
with the patiences of iob himself
the gathering continues
until the last piece is found

Thank you Yonif for the inspiration. I haven't written straight from the spirit in a long time.

[StolarStorm]

Ok. Apparently you need to have everything spelled out for you. I was making a point to drive home the irritation many of us feel with the constant 'everyone is out to get me' articles posted here.

Your responses demanding specific examples of racism, your angry comments at the accusation, and so forth illustrate my point. WE are angry and tired of having to hear about ALLEGED anti-Semitism all the time.... just as you were angered to have someone accuse Jews of also being anti-Gentile. Nobody likes to be accused of such garbage. Posting this kind of BS day in and day out gets old.

You blew a gasket when reading a one line comment alleging racism in the Jewish community... how the hell do you think Gentiles feel about the CONSTANT accusations of anti-Semitism?
